JERSEY CITY, N.J., Dec. 10, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Aoxing Pharmaceutical Company, Inc. (NYSE MKT: AXN) ("Aoxing Pharma"), a specialty pharmaceutical company focusing on research, development, manufacturing, and distribution of narcotic, pain-management, and addiction treatment pharmaceuticals, today announced that its Chinese subsidiary has been selected by the government of the City of Shanghai to supply Zhongtongan, its flagship pain management product, to the health insurance system of Shanghai City. Aoxing Pharma will commence deliveries to Shanghai in the near future.

According to the 2015 Blue Book of Chinese Pharmaceutical Market Development issued by the research institute of the China Food and Drug Administration (CFDA), Zhongtongan was ranked 9th among pharmaceutical products used in China for the treatment of musculoskeletal system diseases, with a market share of 1.96%. Zhongtongan has been shown to be effective in managing pain due to osteoarthritis, oral ulcers and dental pain.

There are now over 130 million residents of China who are over 65 years of age. Among that population, mild to severe symptoms of osteoarthritis are common. The aging of the Chinese population has led to an increase in demand for pain management drugs effective in alleviating the symptoms of osteoarthritis, bone hyperplasia, and cervical vertebrae problems.

"We are delighted by the Shanghai government's decision to utilize our product in serving its population. We expect the sales of our products in Shanghai to grow by 35% in 2016 than that of the previous year. We also expect other local and provincial governments will follow the lead of Shanghai, and we intend to be active in pursuing these opportunities in our targeted markets in the coming months," commented Mr. Zhenjiang Yue, the Chairman and CEO of Aoxing Pharma.
